But that makes no sense. Dadonov filed that list with the NHL right? How can NHL claim ignorance when they control that list?
At the end of the day, Ottawa can say, huh, guess he did file it. He told us he didn't so we just passed that info to you guys. It's on the NHL and Vegas at this point to double check rather just go by what Ottawa told them lol.
